Editorial take: World of Hyatt Credit Card

The anniversary free night at a Category 1-4 Hyatt easily covers the $95 fee, even a Category 1 Hyatt Place clears it. If you stay at any Hyatt once a year, this card pays for itself.

Editorial take: United Business Card

Strong United business card. The free checked bag for two travelers, two club passes, and the under-the-radar $50/twice-per-year hotel credit help cover the $150 AF for any United-leaning small business. The 100k + 2,000 PQP bonus is the sweetener. Post-2025 refresh swapped the old $100/$10k-spend credit for a $125 travel credit unlocked by 5 United flight purchases of $100+.
